With the Lunar New Year event make a comeback, players can expect to see the return of a fan-favourite game mode.

“In Capture the Flag, teams face off, attempting to secure the enemy flag while the opposing team does the same,” reads the official Blizzard description.

The 2018 Lunar New Year event also introduced new Capture the Flag gameplay tweaks.
Flag pick-ups became instant, there was a five second delay when dropped and sudden death was introduced.
“When time runs out, the round starts over, the flags are moved closer to the center of the map, and the first team to capture wins.”
Blizzard is almost certain to make more changes for this year’s event, so stay tuned for more information.
